Tag: cesspool ofsin

what is a human being that you remember him,
a son of man that you look after him? (Psalm 8:4)

I was thinking on those words this morning.

We had all fallen into the cesspool of our sin, completely covered with its filth.

Yet Jesus thought so much of us that he made himself lower than the angels, entered the cesspool and rescued us out of that filth.

What’s really amazing, though, is that whenever he looks at us, he doesn’t see that “thing” he had to rescue from out of the cesspool. He doesn’t see in his mind’s eye all the filth that once covered us.

Instead, the only thing he sees is people clothed in his righteousness, crowned with glory and honor.

His grace and love towards us are truly unfathomable!
